Fans tell me not to wear anything but saree: Mohabbatein actress Preeti Jhangiani on her 'bechari bahu' image!

The Mohabbatein actress Preeti Jhangiani recently spoke about being typecast as the 'bechari bahu' in films and how audiences still perceive her in that way.

New Delhi: Actress Preeti Jhangiani, best known for her role in the rom-com Mohabbatein co-starring Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai in an ensemble cast, recently spoke about being typecast as the 'bechari bahu'. In her latest interview with a leading daily, she revealed that she tried to branch out and take up different roles but her fans weren't too thrilled about that. She told ETimes, "Some people did try to change it. I did Victoria No 203 where I played a negative character; I absolutely loved it. I still use photos from that photoshoot, I am in so much love with them. I really did try to get away from the typecast but the audience didn’t accept it." She expressed that even if she wanted to opt for a kissing scene, audiences wouldn't be okay with it. In fact, some of her die-hard fans still nudge her to wear traditional clothes instead of western ones.
